TRANSCRIPTION - Kate Atkinson

~ Standard Hardcover

Transcription explores the repercussions of one young woman's espionage work during World War II . . . 

A work of rare depth and texture, a bravura modern novel of extraordinary power, wit, and empathy, Transcription is a triumphant work of fiction from Kate Atkinson (Life After Life, A God in Ruins, and Shrines of Gaiety) one of the best writers of our time.

"Everything Atkinson does subverts the classic model of the spy story.  It's that grunginess, that grounded-ness, that attention to the tiny, personal, low-stakes details that elevates Transcription." -- NPR
